Putin is dropping bombs, Ukraine is dying, and Biden makes promises.

Putin is committing war crimes.  He is targeting civilians including children.  Ukraine is being destroyed. 

It did not have to come to this. 

Biden told us he has known what Putin would do all along, yet he failed to do anything until after the bombing began. 

Our President is funding Putin’s war effort.  Biden continues to buy oil (over 200,000 barrels per day) from Putin rather than let us reopen our oil production in this country (our capabilities would produce more than what we buy from Russia).  What is Biden waiting for?  How many more have to die? 

Meanwhile, Biden keeps taunting Putin who is becoming more and more erratic and more likely to be pushed to actually use the nuclear weapons as he has threatened.  I hope all Biden’s supporters remember that they told us that President Trump would get us into a nuclear war; the reality is that it seems that Biden is actually more likely to do so.

I am distraught over the horror and destruction in Ukraine.  I am more distraught watching our President pretend he has the situation under control.   Perhaps he is happy to sacrifice Ukraine so that he has an identifiable enemy to pontificate about.  Perhaps he really believes he can still have his “Cuban missile moment.”

It seems that Ukraine is nothing more than a pawn to Biden; one that he has no problem sacrificing while he uses its people as set pieces during his pathetic State of the Union speech. 

Biden said “buy American.”  If only we could buy American oil once again.  But his refusal to let us do so underscores his lie that he is “doing everything [he can] to stop Putin.”

Biden calls Putin evil.  Putin is clearly that, the evil actor killing innocents, their country, and their culture.  But I place Biden beside him as an accomplice.   Biden may not be dropping the bombs, but he, who told us and Ukraine he would not let this happen, left Putin with no other move to make in this chess game between two unstable leaders, neither of whom gives a damn about the real people involved.

Biden’s State of the Union speech last night was not that.  If it was, he would have told us that the state of the Union is a disaster.   But instead, he gave us lies, statements that contradicted one another, and a list of promises that will only further bankrupt our already bankrupt country. 

And the people in Ukraine are being murdered.  And Biden is lying when he says he is doing everything he can.  He is sidestepping until the only option will indeed be World War Three, perhaps (actually likely) a nuclear war. 

I sit here writing in frustration because what can one person do when so many in this country are willing to look the other way just so long as they don’t have to read mean tweets.  Anyone who, at this point, even attempts to justify this President’s behavior has the blood of the world on his hands.
